Widmer Bros Brewing Thursday Tap Day

Widmer Brothers Brewing
929 N. Russell St.,
Portland, OR 97227
11 am
August 31: Crossed Sticks American Lager
Crossed Sticks American Lager, a light and refreshing lager made with corn. We brewed this beer with Portland LumberJax Lacrosse player Ryan Powell as a call-out to macro-American lagers. With a moderate bitterness and flavors and aromas of cracker, slight corn, and spice, this 4.5% ABV, 26 IBU lager is easy-drinking at its finest. Stop by the pub or the beer garden for a pint!

Fresh Hop Beer Release No.2: Fresh Hop Hellsner
8.31.17
Baerlic Brewing Co.
2235 SE 11th Ave,
Portland, OR 97214
4 pm www.facebook.com/events/1642443142456093/
Our favorite time of year is upon us! Fresh Hop season starts NOW!
ABOUT THE BEER: Fresh Hop Hellsner is a hoppy German Style Helles conditioned on Freshly Picked Santiam hops from Indie Hops. 5% ABV and insanely chuggable. This is the Second of Three Fresh Hop beers we are doing this year!
ABOUT FRESH HOPS: Every year the Pacific Nothwest Hop Harvest happens from early to mid August to the end of September. As the farmers pick them from the bines (yes bines, not vines), they dry them out to about 10-15% moisture and then package them free of oxygen so they will hold up for us brewers to be utilized throughtout the next year.
But, seeing as we are 45 minutes away from the farms we source most of our hops from, we get the rare opportunity to drive down as they are picking the hops and snag them before they are dried. We race them back to the brewery and pitch them into the beer on the hotside or condition the beers on the cold side (dryhopping with fresh hops).
The difference is really apparent and can be described as the difference between using freshly picked herbs and spices from your garden when cooking instead of dried herbs and spices you purchased from the grocery store.
And time is of the essence, drink these beers fast and fresh for the full Fresh Hop Experience!!

Hopworks Urban Brewery

Portland, OR 97202
6 pm www.facebook.com/events/471819169864302
Mt. Angel Volksbier is a collaboration with the folks Mt. Angel Oktoberfest. We made a beer to commemorate their fantastic festival (Sept. 14-17) and we’re releasing it a little early at our pub.
The beer is a mash up of an India Session Ale and German ingredients so we’re calling it a Bavarian Session Ale! It brings together hops sourced from the Hallertau region of Germany and the foothills of Mt. Angel in the Willamette Valley. Spicy, tropical and fruity aromas compliment honeydew and stone fruit flavors all derived from hops and traditional German Ale yeast.
If you buy one of the very limited bottles on August 31, we’ll make sure you get $2 off your Biergarten wristband to the Mt. Angel Oktoberfest.
